With the release of Captain America: Brave New World, it's time to revisit the sprawling Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), now boasting a staggering 35 films. But which MCU movie reigns supreme in your heart? Do you harbor a fondness for the early origin stories like Iron Man? Or do you prefer the thrilling team-ups that culminated in the Infinity Saga? Share your preferences using our handy tier list tool below.
There's a vast selection to choose from, and remember, this list only includes entries from Kevin Feige's MCU, excluding Sony's Marvel films (sorry, X-Men—except Wolverine!). Here's my personal tier list, reflecting my viewing enjoyment over the years:
Unfortunately, Brave New World didn't quite meet my expectations; its clunky script unfortunately relegates it to the D tier. Similarly, placing 2024's Deadpool & Wolverine in the bottom tier might surprise some, but it simply didn't resonate with me. You can read my detailed explanation here. However, I don't consider it the MCU's worst; that dubious honor currently belongs to Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, a clear D-tier entry.
Conversely, my top tier showcases five truly exceptional films. Captain America: Civil War and Winter Soldier easily earn S-tier status, masterfully exploring the MCU's emotional core and paranoid espionage, respectively. Then there's Thor: Ragnarok, one of the funniest comedies of the past decade, and, of course, Avengers: Infinity War and Endgame, which delivered a phenomenal conclusion to the saga's most crucial chapter.
Disagree? Think No Way Home is the best of the Tom Holland Spider-Man trilogy? Should Black Panther be S-tier? Create your own MCU movie tier list below, compare your rankings (S, A, B, C, and D tiers) with the IGN community, and let us know!
